The two statements don't add up. LS engine swaps are popular because they *make sense*.

if you are building a pure competition car and need the ls to compete because every other asshole is doing it ok.
I compete in time trials, but not against any other LS-swapped cars. And the car is primarily a street car, *far* from a pure competition car.

however i will always love a properly built swap that doesnt involve an ls no matter what the platform.
Always hate LS swaps, always love "properly built" swaps? So you would blanketly label any LS swap as "not "properly built"...

And for the love of God leave Rotary cars the fuck alone people!!!!
Rotary-powered cars will *always* be prime targets for swaps for many reasons. Short story is that they're great cars with relatively unreliable and short-lived engines. People get tired of rebuilding rotaries after a while!
